Validator plugin should check for double nodes in way

[Anonymus]

Some ways in the database contains consecutive points with the same coordinates.
E.g.

<way id='30050726' timestamp='2009-02-09T09:19:14+00:00' user='rso4x4' visible='true'>

<nd ref='343628914' />
<nd ref='343628914' />
<nd ref='343628914' />
<nd ref='343628914' />
<nd ref='343628914' />
<nd ref='343628914' />
<nd ref='343628915' />
<nd ref='343628916' />
<nd ref='343628917' />
<nd ref='343628914' />
<nd ref='330980693' />
<nd ref='330980694' />
<nd ref='330980696' />
<tag k='created_by' v='Potlatch 0.10f' />
<tag k='highway' v='residential' />
<tag k='name' v='Sankt-Sebastian-Straße' />

</way>

This will be reported by the mkgmap tool as:
Way has zero length segment at 48.35356/11.09488

Is it possible that the validator plugin checks for this error, so that it is seen and possibly resolved at edit time?

I'm pretty sure there is already a check for this.

At least in the prefs it says "Duplicated Way Nodes" which should check (at least from the wording) exactly what you are asking for.

Please make sure this option is checked in the prefs and check if it works for you.

Tested and it reports the errors for me. I did not fix the issue so you can check, too. Please re-open if you still have problems.

Ok, I've checked too, it works perfectly as it should. Sorry for my fault.
